Did you know that Walmart is the nations largest employer, with 1.4 million people on its payrolls? Thats 10 percent of all US retail workers. Walmart nets $16 billion in annual profits. Its largest stockholders—Christy, Jim, Alice, and S. Robson Walton—are the nations wealthiest family, collectively worth $145 billion. Yet Walmart uses part-time schedules to avoid offering workers benefits. And Walmart pays poorly. Each Walmart store costs US taxpayers between $900,000 and $1.75 million per year because so many employees are forced to turn to government aid (this from a congressional report).
